BOLT FITNESS CLASSIC SERIES MIDAS PLATE LOADED HACK SQUAT
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The BOLT Fitness Classic Series Midas Plate Loaded Hack Squat is a premium lower-body strength machine designed for serious bodybuilding, strength training, and commercial fitness environments. Built for powerful, controlled squatting, the Midas is engineered to shift the loading emphasis away from the shoulders and spine and toward the hips, creating a stable setup for focused lower-body training.
The oversized diamond-plated footplate provides a secure foundation through deep squat movements, while the comfortable upright seat helps create a supported and controlled training position. Easy entry and exit and strategically positioned safety spotter handles add convenience and confidence when performing challenging sets.

WHY CHOOSE THE BOLT FITNESS MIDAS?
The Midas Plate Loaded Hack Squat is an excellent choice for lifters who want to train their lower body with heavy resistance while benefiting from the stability of a dedicated hack squat machine.
Unlike a traditional free-weight squat, the supported machine design allows users to concentrate more directly on the lower-body movement. The hip-loaded design is intended to reduce the burden on the shoulders and spine, while the large footplate provides a stable base for deep, controlled squats.
The Midas is particularly well suited for progressive overload, bodybuilding-style leg training, and facilities that want a dedicated machine for building powerful quads and glutes.
Its combination of a 442 lb heavy-duty frame, oversized footplate, safety handles, and plate-loaded resistance makes it a strong centerpiece for a serious lower-body training area.
MUSCLES WORKED
QUADRICEPS
The quadriceps are the primary muscle group targeted by the hack squat. The movement provides an effective stimulus for building front-of-thigh strength, size, and muscular endurance.
GLUTES
The gluteus maximus contributes significantly during the squat, particularly as the hips extend through the movement.
CALVES
The calves contribute to ankle stability and lower-leg involvement during the hack squat movement.
HAMSTRINGS
The hamstrings assist with hip and knee movement and work alongside the quads and glutes during the squat.
CORE & STABILIZERS
The supported machine position reduces the need for free-standing stabilization while still requiring the body to maintain controlled positioning throughout each repetition.
BENEFITS

The plate-loaded resistance system makes it easy to progressively increase training intensity as your strength improves.
DEVELOP POWERFUL QUADS
The hack squat provides a focused movement for challenging the quadriceps and supporting overall leg development.
TRAIN THE GLUTES
